Danny,

If I remember right someone posted on the red power board about one of these plows on EBAY.  You might try to find it and see what it brings.

       A terracing plow makes sense. I've never seen
  such a thing, so you can imagine my thoughts at first
  glance seeing a PTO coming out the front of it.
       I know it was much to large to be for Gravely but
  I'd like to see one of those too.
        I do wish I went on and bid it up a little
  higher bur as auctions go...who knows where it would
  have stopped. It did go high enough that I'm certain
  the scrap pile is not in in its future.
         Thanks again for the responses.
